Subtribe Hominina

Hominini is the tribe of Homininae that comprises Humans (Homo), and two species of the genus Pan (the Common Chimpanzee and the Bonobo), their ancestors, and the extinct lineages of their common ancestor. Members of the tribe are called hominins. The subtribe Hominina is the "human" branch, including genus Homo and its close relatives, but not Pan. All speices in this tribe carry the same four blood-types which can be exchanged between speices.
